What causes high blood lipids in children?

Middle-aged and elderly people are prone to hyperlipidemia, but some people in life may encounter children with high blood lipids. I believe many people find this phenomenon incredible. In fact, most diseases are caused by the mouth, so if you want to understand the real reason, you must check your usual diet. The following editor will give a specific example for everyone to understand, so that you can have a comprehensive understanding.

Why would such a young child suffer from high blood lipids, a disease that usually only adults get? In order to understand the child's situation, the doctor conducted a so-called three-day dietary survey on the child, which is to ask parents to select the two working days and one rest day that are most representative and can best reflect the child's current eating conditions, and the child's precise diet for these three days. Including what you eat for each meal, how much you eat, how the food is cooked, etc.

After investigation, the doctor found that roast duck appeared twice in the child's diet in 3 days. The child's mother said that her daughter loved roast duck very much, so the family often bought roast duck to eat. Every day I eat fried foods such as fried dough sticks, deep-fried pork loin, fried fish, fried meat, etc., and my snack bar is filled with ice cream, sweet drinks, French fries, puffed foods, etc.

Roast duck, fried meat, sweet drinks, ice cream, etc. are all “three high” foods. The nutritional structure of children's diet is not reasonable, the energy density is too high, there are few alkaline foods such as vegetables and coarse grains, and there are too many unhealthy snacks such as desserts and drinks. Unscientific dietary arrangements are the culprit for children suffering from high blood lipids.

99 nutritionists kindly remind you that eating high-calorie, high-fat foods frequently will increase cholesterol levels and blood viscosity. Whether it is children or adults, a reasonable diet must be arranged and excessive intake of three high foods must not be allowed.

Therefore, we must pay attention to letting children eat more light food. It is best to eat some greasy meat such as roast duck once a month. Eating more vegetables and fruits can also prevent children from having high blood lipids. If children have high blood lipids, it will have a great impact on their future development and growth, so we must pay attention to it, especially when many parents now spoil their children.
